Hi Everyone,

I hope this email finds you well.

I get errors when submitting my package. I didn't get the error when I
submitted the first version of my package.

Here is the error:

Package name: "ftrCOOL".

Error message:

Flavor: r-devel-windows-ix86+x86_64

That is only a note
You could mention that in the comments when you re-submit that these are 
correctly spelled.
Are you knowingly writing to a user library? If so, do not. If not 
explain to CRAN in your submission why you believe this is a false 
epositive.

Hi Sareh:

Package 'ftrCOOL' was removed from the CRAN repository.

Formerly available versions can be obtained from the archive.

Archived on 2021-01-13 for policy violation.

Bests,

Xueyuan

There are two problems:

1. CRAN is flagging two words as misspelled (even though they are valid 
words in the OED, which is notoriously perscriptive).
2. "Writes to user library" --- This is the violation; an example in 
your package is trying to write to a folder in the user's library.

If you look at the check page: 
https://cran-archive.r-project.org/web/checks/2021/2021-01-13_check_results_ftrCOOL.html 
(linked on the archived page), you see this:

 ??? > dir = tempdir()
 ??? > PredDisdir<-system.file("testForder",package="ftrCOOL")
 ??? >
 ??? > PredDisdir<-paste0(PredDisdir,"/Disdir/")
 ??? > ad1<-paste0(dir,"/disorderB.txt")
 ??? >
 ??? > 
mat<-DisorderB(PredDisdir,binaryType="strBin",outFormat="txt",outputFileDist=ad1)
 ??? Warning in file(con, "w") :
 ???? cannot open file 
'/home/hornik/tmp/R.check/r-devel-clang/Work/build/Packages/ftrCOOL/extdata/tempTable.txt': 
Read-only file system
 ??? Error in file(con, "w") : cannot open the connection
 ??? Calls: DisorderB -> readDisDir -> writeLines -> file
 ??? Execution halted

I think you can fix it by using tempfile() or tempdir() for the ad1 object.

Hope that helps,
Zhian
